I want to change mine, I've typed in the part number and come up as Audi transmission oil? Sound right? Also did it change the feel at all? Ive read people put the redline stuff in but I'm 50/50 about which to use..

They all use the same oil - The genuine oil has a specific set of additives in it which other oils seem to lack. Alot of people move away from genuine, then come back as the other oil degrades alot faster.

Okay brilliant thanks a lot!
I know a boy that works for vw so I'm gonna ask him if he can get hold of any for me if not I will get it off the tinternet
Do you know any specific sites that do it by any chance? And how much does the gearbox take roughly?

Thanks!
